Well, it's bad in particular because Fedora won't package Intel's VA API driver so you have to get that from RPM Fusion, so at least on Fedora, it wouldn't matter if you depended on the Gstreamer VA API plug-in, which is in Fedora proper, as the user would hit bug 173799 and melt their laptop without the Intel driver.

I'm assuming that Fedora Legal's opinion of Intel's VA driver is that it violates some US patents?
